This follows a 2-0 victory over AS Kaloum in first leg action in Bamako last night.

Thamsanqa Gabuza and Oupa Manyisa netted for Pirates who lead 1-0 at the interval.

The second leg will take place in South Africa on 6 June.

The winners over two legs will reach the group stage.

Neil Tovey, meanwhile, expects a tough battle for the remaining spot in the Absa Premiership next season.

Tovey says Moroka Swallows are in for a stiff challenge from Jomo Cosmos and Black Leopards.

The action is set to start this Sunday with Leopards scheduled to meet Cosmos.
